This study developed a sensitive immunochromatographic assay strip for the rapid detection of fluopyram fungicide residues in potatoes and soybeans. The method utilizes a novel antibody designed through computer-assisted simulation to provide reliable on-site monitoring of chemical residues in potato-derived food products.
This study presents a hybrid deep learning framework, ConvMixer-ViT, and a preprocessing method called EnviroSpect for the robust detection of potato diseases like early and late blight in diverse field environments. The model achieves high accuracy with low computational requirements, offering an efficient solution for real-time potato pathology monitoring on resource-constrained devices.
This study characterizes Pseudomonas stutzeri P1, an endophytic bacterium isolated from potato, through whole-genome sequencing and biochemical analysis. The research identifies genetic traits for nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, and biocontrol against fungal pathogens, highlighting its potential as a bioinoculant for sustainable potato cultivation.
This study selected and characterized single-stranded DNA aptamers targeting Potato Spindle Tuber Viroid (PSTVd) using SELEX. Several aptamers bound specifically to PSTVd and either inhibited or promoted viroid infection in plant assays, demonstrating their potential utility in modulating PSTVd infectivity.
This study identifies StMKK9 as a positive regulator of tuber initiation and development in potato, showing that its overexpression accelerates tuberization and increases yield. Additionally, StMKK9 enhances cold adaptation by interacting with the transcription factor StCBF3, making it a potential target for breeding early-maturing and climate-resilient potato cultivars.
This study investigates the use of bacterial-derived indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) from Kocuria rosea to enhance the in vitro micropropagation of Solanum tuberosum. The results demonstrate that bacterial IAA significantly improves growth parameters, including root and leaf number, while increasing chlorophyll and endogenous hormone levels compared to synthetic alternatives.
This study evaluated biodegradable starch/PBAT packaging films modified with steam-exploded wheat bran and corn husk by-products. In fresh-cut potato packaging trials, the films reduced polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity by 20%, effectively delaying enzymatic browning and helping maintain the sensory quality of the stored potatoes.
This study investigates the use of kojic acid and ε-poly-L-lysine to suppress potato common scab caused by Streptomyces scabies. The research demonstrates that these compounds reduce disease severity through direct antibacterial activity and by remodeling the tuber-associated microbiome and soil environment.
Researchers identified StSOAK1 as a negative regulator of immunity in potato that controls ROS production by phosphorylating the enzyme StRBOHB. Gene editing of StSOAK1 enhances resistance to Phytophthora infestans and Botrytis cinerea by stabilizing StRBOHB and boosting the immune-related ROS burst.
This study evaluates alkaline electrolyzed water (AEW) as an eco-friendly alternative for modifying potato starch, comparing its effects on structural and physicochemical properties with traditional alkaline treatments. The results indicate that AEW effectively alters starch crystallinity, solubility, and stability, offering a sustainable method for potato starch processing.
